DJI Mini 4 PRO at the Snake River Canyon on a Foggy Cold Day - Firmware Update 01.00.0800

[@FredHarvey-wp2qy]

Even when the weather doesn't cooperate, you manage to make a visually appealing and awe inspiring video!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you so much Fred, I appreciate that! 🙂

[@sg1770]

I love this canyon. You always have such beautiful videos.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you, it's a beautiful place to fly!

[@rubengarciajr7560]

how far do u live from this canyon?

[@pp2trancos]

Vaya,vaya como luce ese río Snake aunque la niebla intente ocultarlo

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Ha! Yes, it was a cold day of flying. 🙂

[@henrytaaffe7058]

even in the cold weather Marcus you shine. great video sir.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you very much Henry!

[@bubba6richards729]

Nature is beautiful. Thanks for sharing Marcus. Love my mini 4 pro. 😎

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It's a great little drone! I agree!

[@Upabovewisconsin]

Very cool flying over that edge. Sooo high up there but cool to see the drone going over and the views you were getting. WOW!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thanks for watching! It was a bit nerve-wracking, but I loved the views! 🙂

[@RonaldBrown59]

Interesting footage of the fog, it's beautiful in its own way. And just goes show you how good the camera is on the MIni 4 Pro, that it could capture it so well. Thanks for testing the Rocket quick shot mode for the camera up error, it appears Shaun is on to something. Great video Marcus, and thanks for sharing.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I appreciate the kind words about the video Ron! Yes, that's an interesting anomaly with the Mini 4 Pro Camera.

[@skyepilotte11]

Thx Marcus...beutiful river canyon...that drone is for real !

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! it's a great little drone! 🙂

[@tedbohlman2953]

You are a brave man my friend……BRRR, Nice video!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Ted! It was pretty cold, but I’m glad you enjoyed the video. I love flying from that spot.

[@flyguy1359]

Great footage Marcus, prefer the moody winter stuff over a clear blue summer sky. 👍

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It was cold, but also really fun!

[@CaughtonCamerabyBill]

I was in Idaho with my Mini3pro this past September and went to Silver City which was fascinating. By the time we were heading around the snake river however I learned a valuable lesson while at the sand dunes...which was never take off directly on the sand. I can't wait to visit there again and I love watching your videos. Thanks for sharing!!!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Silver City is such a cool bit of Idaho history. I'm glad you got to see it.

[@pgil9511]

Amazing control even in the fog Wow!!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

The Mini 4 Pro is just a great bit of tech. Thank you!

[@UKBUBBLERS]

Great video as usual Marcus 😁 👍 👌 🇬🇧

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It is absolutely my pleasure! Thank you @UKBUBBLERS! 🙂

[@rickseyeview5345]

Love your Snake River Canyon flights! Would love to see you fly when there is snow on the ground.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Ha! Yes, I've flown there in the snow before. It happens. 😄

[@jimanderson4865]

Hi Marcus.....Thanks for the nice views of the frosty canyon........❄❄❄

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Jim! It was cold, but still great fun!

[@Alan316100]

Interesting vid Marcus. Even with the fog some spectacular scenery. 🙂

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Julius! Yes, the fog and frost made it interesting!

[@RDsRCReviews]

nice vid as always Marcus. Love seeing the Mini 4 Pro.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Ryan, it was cold but fun!

[@LAP1050]

Hi Marcus, great video stunning views of the canyon 👏 Several KZbin channels have tested and confirmed the problems with the latest firmware 0800. Let’s hope Dji is working on a fix SOON. Thanks for sharing Lou fro Miami 👍🇺🇸

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Lou! I'm sure DJI won't mess around for too long. They'll get it corrected. 👍

[@WildCaptures]

Thanks for freezing your fingers for that beautiful scenery I thoroughly enjoyed it 👍💯

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It was definitely worth it! 😄 Thank you!

[@JohnOlson-hx3vt]

As always you do a really nice view of the snake river canyon. Boy that fog would scare me from flying. Boy I can feel the cold right through the tablet screen.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you John! Yes, it was cold! 😄

[@narecardoso1]

Brrrrrrr... That's cold 🥶🥶 beautiful though ✌✌

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! Yes, it was a little cold. 😄

[@clintsteinebach]

Yes sir! I have picked up a lot of trash out there for sure. You picked a great day to play, Looks great! I was on the Butte the other day and it was cold.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It's rare to see anyone else out there. I'll bet it gets busy on Saturday nights though. 😄

[@joshrice5894]

Wow that is sure neat. I like that edge of the frosty canyon shot beautiful. The colors have sure changed since the last video during the summer. That rocket setting was pretty dramatic Thanks for the video that is a neat area. GOD Bless You

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! It is a pretty dramatic place to fly! 🙂

[@chris112005]

Very nice video. Kind regards from germany

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you very much!

[@delzane]

You are a "YT Trooper"!!! Burr and thanks for sharing. 🥶🥶🥶

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Ha! I do my best Del! 😎

[@ThePNWRiderWA]

I very much enjoyed flying the drone in Idaho last summer on my trip in the RV to the western states the waterfalls by Twin Falls and the canyon are so impressive

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

That's great to hear! I do love flying at the canyon!

[@BobBrown-i2h]

Thank you for sharing your adventures and for the reminder about firmware updates. BTW our Air 3S had the same anomaly happen yesterday when we tried the rocket, the camera went straight up in the air at the end of the maneuver, and it was all filmed in fast-forward.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Wow! I better check my Air 3S! 😄

[@Rockin_EUC]

The footage looks so good!!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! DJI puts great cameras on these drones!

[@MichaelBarber-z8f]

Greetings Marcus 👋 My friend 😀. Sending you a warm blanket by drone 👍. Lol, I don't think my drone won't fly that far though lol😂. Thank you so very much for braving the cold and frost weather my friend. I'm amazed how good the DJI mini 4 pro did in the fog and frost. Hope you have a great week and God bless you always 🙏. Take care and looking forward to seeing more videos soon. Happy Holidays. 🎄⛄

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Shane, it was a chilly day! 🙂

[@bobwallis1757]

very nice Marcus, frosty Idaho, looking good!!!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It was pretty cold out there! 😄

[@gap6133]

Now that's dedication! Strange that you seem to be all alone out there.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

😄 It was a lot of fun!

[@chriswhite58]

Sweet! Finally got my mini 4K, did the update, and I'm gonna fly it at Lake Havasu.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Enjoy that new Mini 4K. Enjoy that warm weather too! 🙂

[@richardhykes6939]

That gimbal thing is weird. Ya'll figure that thing out let us know. Enjoy that video. Keep on flying my friend

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes, it's a pretty strange anomaly! I'll keep you updated.

[@richardhykes6939]

@IdahoQuadcopter thanks keep on flying my friend

[@Lorenzo_Velasquez]

@@IdahoQuadcopterHey Marcus, one of your fan here, I couldn't find your email so I had to message you on Facebook messenger for a request 🙂

[@SteveJenness]

Marcus, I thought the Idaho climate was balmy.... LOL Great presentation as usual. Happy Holidays.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Steve!

[@mikeh2565]

Thanks for the view!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@bengundy3372]

Thanks for the video. I live in Meridian and you gave me an idea and it's still cold with frost...burrrr!

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes, we live in a great area for flying drones!

[@SuperNova-py1ec]

Great footage. Never noticed the cables before, maybe the frost highlighted them more.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Yes, they were pretty frosty! 🥶

[@n7tb]

In addition to drones, I fly RC airplanes. There are white glove liners at Harbor Freight that I use to fly in cold weather. They really help and still give you great stick feel.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

That's a great idea! I'll check it out. Thank you!

[@907nvl]

GRE video! THANK YOU 👍👍

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you for the visit!

[@MrRaymond1021]

That video do look great in that weather. I really enjoy watching the fog and frost, but I don't want to be out there. Too damn cold for me and my fingers. I'm surprised that update didn't fix the camera problem. DJI needs to fix that. About the younger generation, yeah they're a little too carefree. At least most of them. It's like they don't care about anything or anyone. Some are so disrespectful that really it makes me sad to think about what their parents are going through, and the worse part of it is that we can't say anything to them, because they get offended easily. What can we do, ignore them for the most part I guess. Thanks for sharing as always Marcus. See you in the next video. Happy holidays to you and your loved ones. 👍👍👍

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! Merry Christmas!

[@exploringwithjohnny6947]

sure looks cold marcus .was me be worring if lost in that cold fog .nice vid

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

It was damn cold Johnny! 😄

[@Surfdronesd]

California isn't looking so bad. I'm staying.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Ha! I hear you! 🙂

[@Petefus]

With those wx conditions, do you worry about freezing fog or prop ice up??? Looks like it could happen.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I checked all that out when I landed. There was no ice on the drone at all. 👍

[@cigarnationwarriors]

Marcus, this is one of your best videos and I hope you’ll let us know when DJI fixes that anomaly.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! Yes, I'll keep an eye on this error.

[@LandOverview]

Nice views and end of the day it is worth getting out even on cold days to get such nice foggy views, myself I wary of updates on all things my garmin started to freez and act funny after an update so sent it for a replacement recently, as for drones If they work fine for me I haven't updated some in over a year and they good, so unless they have a new feature I need I don't bother and so far I never had any problems.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you, it was cold, but still a lot of fun! 😄

[@PhilKingsland]

Cool!! vid. What is the blue grid lower mid of frame at 4:13? Something to investigate next visit maybe.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you, I can already see what it is. Some idiot threw a Chep pallet over the edge and it landed on that ledge.

[@HikeFly22]

Very nice flight. My mini 3 pro and the original mavic air would also try to land if i hit down when going through fog.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

That's good to know. I'll post my Mini 4K video soon.

[@Drone_Odyssey]

Hi Marcus - this is Paul again; I wanted to give you some feedback on today's video, and also to ask you a question. First, the feedback is to say how much I enjoyed this video - the canyon is a stunning location and seeing it in frosty conditions was really great - thank you. Secondly, here's my question, as you appeared to be out there alone. Do you not worry what could happen if something happened to you, such as an accident or medical emergency? Not trying to be a smart alec or a doom-monger - just a little concerned for your safety as it looks to be pretty remote. Thanks again - I love your channel and hope you will keep it going for a long time. Currently I only have the little DJI Neo (its my first drone) and its very striking how much faster your Mini 4 Pro was moving in that massive landscape, not to mention the image quality. I'm really thinking about getting a Mini 4 Pro soon, but have seen the leaks about the forthcoming DJI Flip and am wondering if I should hold back to see exactly what that will offer - assuming it is released fairly soon, as I am not the most patient guy in the world! 🤔 Decisions, decisions! By the way I am English but currently living in New Zealand.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you for the kind words Paul! I appreciate your concern! Yes, was thinking about that very thing while I was out there. What if my truck does not start? 🙂

[@Drone_Odyssey]

@@IdahoQuadcopter hope you at least have cellphone coverage out there ... but anyway, obviously you made it back home safely 😎 Please keep up the good work!

[@Ralph073]

Oh Those Cold Fingers..So I wont be flying as much as i did last winter cause its No fun... And Here is One person who knows what that is like..So Thanks a Bunch for getting out there.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! Cold fingers and all, it's still fun to fly! 🙂

[@Skelton45]

Interesting Video. I like the screens showing Clear Airspace and Forecast. However, Weather Minimums may be questionable. Otherwise good.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you for watching!

[@123windyron]

I want the mini 5 pro if it ever comes out

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

No real rumors yet!

[@123windyron]

@IdahoQuadcopter ok let us no ok

[@Randomentertainmentz]

Very impressive flight. How how does the cold temperature affect your battery and the propellers. I'm in the hot season here in Ghana West Africa. After watching series of videos from Nobby Green and the Roberts the issues, I decided not to until the issues are resolved. I thank you so much for the error confirmation. Stay blessed and safe all the time Amen. My regards to your family. Welbeck here from Accra Ghana West Africa.❤❤

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Welbeck!! Yes, it was quite cold, but the drone handled it just fine!

[@rianthurman1319]

Great video.....did you have any condisation build up on the drone from flying in the fog??. ..I've been apprehensive about doing that

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I didn't see any icing on the Mini 4 Pro. Thank you!

[@ernieschatz3783]

Foggy with frost. A bit daring flying over a canyon in freezing temps with moisture in the air.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

The drone did okay. 🙂

[@tom95521]

Two years ago I had cataract surgery. I opted for the clareon vivity extended depth of focus lenses. Not having to wear glasses for any distance is a game changer. No foggy glasses. BTW, the canyon must be popular with hang gliders?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I've never seen any hang gliders out there, but I understand what you're saying. 👍

[@bluefyr22]

Just grabbed my own mini 4 pro today and was psyched to find a boise area drone tuber. Are there any clubs or meet ups here?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I don't know of any local drone clubs. We do have some great places to fly!

[@Pots57]

Hi uk here again this just the mini 4pro I'm getting air s soon good advice and heads up

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you! Enjoy your new drone!

[@chrisahogan7593]

I am looking at getting this drone. Might see about reaching out to ask you some question. Especially since you live in Idaho as well.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

The Mini 4 Pro is a very capable little drone. I like flying it. 🙂

[@lancemason6789]

Sir out of kuna nice to see the work you are doing. If you were going to get one drone 0 to 1500 dollars what would you buy.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

If I could only own one drone it would be the DJI Air 3S. 🙂

[@lancemason6789]

Ty sir have a great holiday season

[@lewdude2k8]

I hope they fix this before December 25th or I think they will get record breaking customer related issues! Also The canyon is wonderful you live next to some brilliant landscapes

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you very much!

[@jameshatchett8095]

I restrict my flying to the recommended temperature range by DJI as well as what is to cold to be fun. I think the recommended temp is 32f min.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

DJI says 14f. Thank you for watching.

[@lauren301]

With those conditions,, did you get any icing?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Just on my fingers. 😄

[@Jumpy66]

Danke Jörg, das mit dem RC Controller und Mini 4 pro war wohl falsch. Habe den Controller noch einmal eingeschaltet. Die Mini 4 pro war auf dem RC Controller nicht mehr vorhanden. Wichtig wäre auch die find me Funktion. Meine ein Drohnenverlust ist nicht schön. Sei es Piepser bei WLAN. Bzw. Ortungskarte. Wie mit dem RC Controllern. Denke den Punkt hast du vergessen.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I'm not sure I completely understand your comment, but thank you for watching!

[@halesworth01]

Marcus, just a polite suggestion! Can you tell us people here in Europe ( I'm in the UK) Temps' in Celsius please! (A cheat sheet for yourself in the field might help you) I'm sort of ok when you said the temps' I worked out it was +1 degrees Celsius to -1 degrees Celsius, I'm 54 so can do a rough calculation, but younger ones in the UK couldn't and defo not the E.U (or worldwide) Thanks Clive

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you Clive! The problem is, I can't win, people in the US get mad at me when I use metric, and the other way around. 😄 I'll just keep doing what I do.

[@107drones]

I think the bluff name is "Callyour".

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

No Barkley I know where that is, and it's out at Poker Flats.

[@107drones]

@@IdahoQuadcopter Oh, that's right. Near Vegas. 😆

[@Lucky-Lucy330]

I have to ask you since I have asked others and no one wants to reply. I did not think it was that serious of a question. Well the question is just got my mini 4 pro and trying different sd cards which have you or others found to be about the best for the mini 4 pro Thanks

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I use a 64GB Sandisk Extreme Pro. 👍👍

[@Lucky-Lucy330]

Thank you

[@ernieschatz3783]

What do you call a bluff?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

The bluff on the far side of the canyon. 🤷‍♂️

[@backyard3749]

Last time I flew in a heavy fog like that, I got a "motor overheating" warning and the drone was drenched wet when it returned. This happen to anyone else?

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

I did not see that on my flight. 👍
